Got a call and thought it was a number I recognized. A sweet young thing told me via a recorded message that I had won some kind of a contest. Unfortunately I didn't know about the opting out feature mentioned by 'Fraud Alert'. I'll add the above number to my personal 'Drop Dead List' and inform the proper authorities who will probably be able to do nothing useful to stop such idiocy and fraud.
This is a fraud campaign currently active in Canada using a series of Iristel VOIP numbers. The objective is to obtain your credit card number and drain your account.
If you attempt to "opt out" your number will be confirmed as live and added to a suckers list for repeated future calls.
